we had many more Of the kind. They
are the men that build up and develop
towns they make their own fortunes,
and in doing SO add much to those
around them. A man of indomitable
pluck and energy, wideawake and
progressive in his ideas, Mr.. Cooper is
ever ready to turn his attention into
any channel of industry and trade that
promises we'll for himself or the town.
While he is quick to act, he is never
theless cautious and sagacious in all
his business transactions, and his deal
ings cover wide range of enterprise
and his operations are quite extensive
as well.
Mr.. Cooper is yet young man,
hardly in the prime of life, SO far as
the full development and display Of his
splendid business powers are concerned
Personally he is held in high esteem
by his fellowmen-and those who pat
ronze his house swear by him (hgura-
lively speaking.) He is one of those
observant, affable, magnetic souls that
seem to understand human nature and
draw men to them. All the farmers
know L" Dave Cooper, and knowing
him is to like him. His motto is to
please his patrons and guarantee sat
isfaction; and this is lived up to most
happily, if good accommodations for
the farmers and their teams, and the
highest prices for their tobacco, count
for anything.
Mr. Cooper is a man of sterling
qualities, who came upon the stage of
action as a tobacco warehouseman
with only that knowledge and expe-
rience gained in the field as grow
err of a." the weed" as already stated.
How we'll he has succeeded the mas

we'll arranged establishment, fitted up
in modern style, everything being
planned with an eye to comfort, con-
venience and adaptability to the pur-
poses for which it is designed. In
deed, it is complete in all its details
and appointments, credit to the
proprietor and an ornament to the
town.
As a man of sound business princi-
pies, practical and matured in thought
and action as applied to the every
day affairs of life, Mr.. Cooper enjoys
distinction far beyond his years, and
may very properly be held up as an
example of what we'll directed energy,
morality and integrity may accom-
plish. He is essentially a self-made
man, and deserves all the more credit
for being what he is to-day, one OF
our wea!thiest and foremost citizens,
intelligent, public-spirited and pro-
gressive. Mr.. Cooper buys extensively
of tobacco himself, and is prepared to
fill all orders entrusted to him. He
makes speciality of fine wrappers and
cutters, and his thorough knowledge
of the business, born of years of expe,
rience, and guarantee to satisfy hi:
customers, should be recommendation
enough for him, if indeed any recon-
mendation were needed. He Ia:

An unfamiliar guest,

Such poInp Of color these bright blossoms wear,
Proud strangers OF the west.
How beautiful they are. Celestial blue
The harebells lift their dazzling spires to view;
And warm with golden sheen
The poppies hold their satin splendor up,
And the wild daisy in its gilded cup
Still hides the mountain dew.
The lilies white, but dashed with crimson fire,
Are daughters of the SIM. These purple spires
Bloomed on crag SO high
The robes of morning and of evening swept
Their opening buds and their ripe petals kept
The kisses of the sky.
And yet, as one entranced may stand alone
In some great festival where all unknown
thousand faces grow,
And suddenly, from far forgotten days.
Some shadow face with pleading, tender gaze
Revives the long ago
So, as gaze upon these naughty flowers
OF the Sierras, dear New England bowers
Breathe back their lost perfume:
see the mayilower, with its flush of pink.
And, sweeter still. upon the rivers brink,

The Story Told by a Chicago Man.
Gathering Methods and Points.


No man in Chicago is possessed of moro In
formation on the subject of brickmaking than
George M. Pullman. Though probably with
out personal experience in the mixing and
burning of clay, Mr.. Pullman might be set
down IS an expert brickmaker. AS illustrating
the thoroughness with which Pullman uses
preparations before embarking in an enter
prise, well known brickmaker tells very
good story. Some years ago, when Pullman
was preparing to engage in the brick business
on the shores of Lake Calumet, this brick
maker received an invitation to call on tho
sleeping car magnate and talk brickmaking.
Having in view the inferential possibility Of
a co-partnership, or contract, or other profit
able connection with tho Pullman town
building enterprise, the bricknaker gladly
awaited himself of the opportunity thus
offered. Pullman received him graciously,
and in private showed him samples of Lake
Calumet clay, asked questions concerning
brickmaking methods and materials and lis
tened quite patiently while the brickmaker,
warming up with bis subject and naturally
anxious to make a good impression, some
what enthusiastically related his experience
during the last twenty years. and described
many of the processes which he had hitherto
nelu almost as secrets. ne interview over,
Pullman said he would take the matter under
consideration, and that his caller might ex-
pect to hear from him again almost any day.
AS yet the brickmaker has not heard from
Pullman. He was not long in learning how
ever, that half dozen other skilled brick
makers had been similarly favored by the
ambitious town builder. and that from all OF
them the host had drawn descriptions of their
favorite methods and many valuable points
concerning materials and machinery. More
over, it was soon learned that while these
brickmaking gentlemen were thus talking to
Mr.. Pullman i'll that gentleman's private Of
flee shorthand man was industriously at
work behind a screen making verbatim
record Of all he heard.
No one of the expert brickmakers was
called for n second time by the sleeping car
landlord, but in few months they all heard
with what chagrin may be easily imagined
that Pullman had engaged in the bricknak
ing business on his own acconnt-Chicagc
